Hack the planet!
my biggest passion is to run a custom firmware on as many devices as possible

New toy,
Pudu Food delivery Robot.

Doom runs fine on its internal Android RK3399 NanoPC-T4

Basically an over engineered Hoverboard with two RealSense D435 3D Cameras and Lidar

Finally there is DOOM on a Cooking Pot...

Nice hacking challenge of a way over-engineered "Smart-device"!

Inside we can find 4 SoC's from 4 companies:
Heat control via STM32F031
Input button via PIC18F8..
Wifi via ESP32
Main FW Renesas 400Mhz ARM A9

Aha! Mystery solved, the mentioned chip is actually the Display driver
The main SoC is the one next
The DA14535 with a 24 Pin case
https://renesas.com/en/products/da14535

This explains why the firmware is so similar to the DA14585^^ Not a clone

This opens up everything for a custom firmware

Ever seen this 32 Pin SoC ? Looks like a tree logo
and 257STWC0A e3

Crazy that the Smart BLE Ring with a Matrix Display is real🤪

But something is strange this claimed unknown PAR2860 SoC(If that is really inside the ring) looks very much like the firmware of the 7 Segment Ring (DA14585 SoC) but is still different.

maybe a cloned DA14585?

What's better then a Smart Ring with 7 Seg Display?
A Smart Ring with matrix Display!

20€ version on Aliexpress(Affilia) https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_c4aEitU1

Main BLE SoC PXI PAR2860 with 512KB Flash and 32KB RAM

Still on order but excited to Hack it next!

The Simple nRF52832 Spectrum Analyzer is now working on the Allmiibo LCD and OLED Variant🥳

Fully OTA Updateable from pixljs and back

Just finished Hacking the Pill Camera that you'd swallow for an easy endoscopy

Ti CC1310 SoC Glitched and Dumped which allowed to Reverse Engineer its firmware and RF Protocol up to full Image receiving🥳
No security included but short range.

Lets take a look inside one of those Aliexpress "Smart" Car Keyfobs which you can retrofit your "Lame" Car Key with 😅

TLDR: It does not run Doom 😞

The internal RTL8762TD Has sadly "only" 192KB of RAM

Find the Teardown video here:

Finally there is code execution on this Shi**y Realtek RTL8752H and RTL8762ESL ARM SoC🥳

Full custom firmware goes Brrrrr

These chinese vendors like Realtek Bluetrum and Jieli only care about copy protection and cribble down a perfectly fine ARM Core with their tooling🙄
